6 Develop a global partnership for development

Where we are?

What is the current situation in the world?

Core development aid falls in real terms for the first time in more than a decade, as donor countries face fiscal constraints.

In 2011, net aid disbursements amounted to $133.5 billion, representing 0.31 per cent of developed countries’ combined national income. While constituting an increase in absolute dollars, this was a 2.7 per cent drop in real terms over 2010. If debt relief and humanitarian aid are excluded, bilateral aid for development programmes and projects fell by 4.5 per cent in real terms.
